Independent auditor’s report on review of condensed consolidated interim financial statements To the Shareholders of Etihad Etisalat Company

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying 31 March 2020 condensed consolidated interim financial statements of Etihad Etisalat Company (“the Company”) and its subsidiaries (“the Group”) which comprise:

• the condensed consolidated interim statement of financial position as at 31 March 2020; • the condensed consolidated interim statement of profit or loss for the three-month period ended 31 March 2020; • the condensed consolidated interim statement of comprehensive income for the three-month period ended 31 March 2020; • the condensed consolidated interim statement of changes in equity for the three-month period ended 31 March 2020; • the condensed consolidated interim statement of cash flows for the three-month period ended 31 March 2020; and • the notes to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with IAS 34, ‘Interim Financial Reporting’ that is endorsed in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these condensed consolidated interim financial statements based on our review.

Scope of review

We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements 2410, ‘Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity’ that is endorsed in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing that are endorsed in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

KPMG Al Fozan & Partners Certified Public Accountants, a registered company in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and a non- partner member firm of the KPMG network of independent firms affiliated with KPMG International Cooperative, a Swiss entity.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying 31 March 2020 condensed consolidated interim financial statements of Etihad Etisalat Company and its subsidiaries are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34, ‘Interim Financial Reporting’ that is endorsed in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

2 BASIS OF ACCOUNTING

2.1 Statement of Compliance

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements comprise the financial information of the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the ‘Group’).

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 ‘Interim Financial Reporting’ that is endorsed in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and other standards and pronouncements issued by Saudi Organization for Certified Public Accountants.

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all of the information required for full annual consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with Group’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2019.

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been approved for issuance on 20 April 2020 (corresponding to 27 Shaban 1441H).

2.2 Basis of measurement

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on historical cost basis unless stated otherwise using the going concern basis of assumption.

2.3 Functional and presentation currency

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements are presented in Saudi Riyal (“SR”) which is the functional currency of the Company. All amounts have been rounded off to the nearest thousands unless otherwise stated.

3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accounting policies applied in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements are in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards “IFRS” that are endorsed in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and other standards and pronouncements issued by SOCPA which are consistent with those that were applied in the Group’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2019.

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements have been consistently applied to all periods presented.

4 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS

The preparation of the Group’s condensed consolidated interim financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of the asset or liability affected in future periods. The significant judgments made by management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the Group’s annual consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS that are endorsed in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and other standards and pronouncements issued by SOCPA for the year ended 31 December 2019.

4 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS (CONITINUED)

4.1 Fair value measurement

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either: • In the principal market for the asset or liability; or • In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.

The principal or most advantageous market must be accessible by the Group. The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest.

A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant's ability to generate economic benefits from the asset’s highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would utilize the asset in its highest and best use.

The Group uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the condensed consolidated interim financial statements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy. This is described as follows based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole: • Level 1 - Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; • Level 2 - Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable; and • Level 3 - Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable.

For assets and liabilities that are recognized in the condensed consolidated interim financial statements at fair value on a recurring basis, the Group determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorization (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period. The Group determines the policies and procedures for both recurring fair value measurement, and for non-recurring measurement.

At each reporting date, the Group analyses the movements in the values of assets and liabilities which are required to be re-measured or re-assessed as per the Group’s accounting policies. For this analysis, the Group verifies the major inputs applied in the latest valuation by agreeing the information in the valuation computation to contracts and other relevant documents. The Group also compares the change in the fair value of each asset and liability with relevant external sources to determine whether the change is reasonable. For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Group has determined classes of assets and liabilities on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the level of the fair value hierarchy, as explained above.

4.2 IMPACT OF COVID-19 The Group’s operations may be affected by the recent and ongoing outbreak of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) which was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization in March 2020. The ultimate disruption which may be caused by the outbreak is uncertain. The telecommunications industry has been designated as an essential service by the Government of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and as such the Group continues to operate while taking into account the health and safety of our workforce. Possible effects of the outbreak may include, but are not limited to; disruption to the Group’s customers and revenue, unavailability of products and supplies used in operations and delayed payments by customers. As the Covid-19 outbreak continues to evolve, it is difficult to forecast its full extent and duration of the economic impact as of now. The management of the Group is currently monitoring the situation and its impact on the Group’s operation, cash flows and financial position. Management believes, based on their assessment, that the Group has sufficient liquidity available to continue to meet its financial commitments for the foreseeable future as and when they become due.

The reasons of issuing these resolutions vary between the manner followed in issuing prepaid SIM Cards and providing promotions that have not been approved by CITC and/or other reasons.

Multiple lawsuits were filed by the Group against CITC at the Board of Grievances in order to oppose to such resolutions of the CITC’s violation committee in accordance with the Telecom Status and its regulations, as follows:

• There are (833) lawsuits filed by the Group against CITC amounting to SR 711 million as of 31 March 2020. • The Board of Grievance has issued (190) verdicts in favor of the Group voiding (190) resolutions of the CITC’s violation committee with a total penalties amounting to SR 506 million as of 31 March 2020. • Some of these preliminary verdicts have become conclusive (after they were affirmed by the appeal court) cancelling penalties with a total amounting to SR 505 million as of 31 March 2020.

Management and the Board of Directors believe that, based on the status of these lawsuits as of 31 March 2020, adequate and sufficient provisions have been recorded.

The Group is subject to zakat according to the regulations of the General Authority of Zakat and Tax (GAZT) in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

The Group has filed its zakat returns with GAZT for the years through 2018 and settled its zakat thereon. During the year ended 31 December 2016, the Group submitted adjusted zakat returns for the years 2013 and 2014, as a result of restatement of the consolidated financial statements for the said years.

The Group has finalized its zakat status for the years up to 2008. The Group has received zakat and withholding tax assessments for the years 2009, 2010 and 2011 that showed additional zakat and withholding tax liabilities of SR 226 million and SR 159 million respectively, which have been appealed against by the Group at the Preliminary and Higher Appeal Committees. Recently, the Higher Appeal Committee has issued certain rulings in favor of the company related to zakat and withholding tax disputes. Management believes that it has sufficient grounds to contest the matters included in the assessments and the eventual outcome of the appeal process will not result in any significant liability.
